The Jaffrey Civic Center—the heart of cultural and civic activities in the Monadnock region—is excited to welcome you to our second annual Heart of the Arts Gala Art Auction on Saturday, April 29, 2023. The evening will kick off at 6:30pm with a silent art auction, a cocktail hour, hors d’oeuvres, and entertainment, followed by a live auction and desserts.

This festive event is an opportunity to mingle with friends old and new while surrounded by more than 75 exceptional works of art by local and regional artists—a rare chance to view the world through others’ eyes. One of those pieces may be yours by the end of the night, as you just may find a painting or photograph that speaks to you in a special way and that you will find wall space for!

Proceeds from the Gala, which is the Center’s signature fundraiser, will advance the mission of the Center, a community-focused nonprofit that has been providing exhibitions, performances, and educational programs to residents and visitors for more than 55 years. The funds raised from the Gala will be critical to the Center’s ability to continue offering its wide range of free programming over the coming year.

So dress your festive best and join us for a delightful evening at the Jaffrey Civic Center. We look forward to welcoming you in the spirit of good cheer, camaraderie, and fun with a backdrop of wonderful art!
